About this house rental
There’s a certain kind of magic in places that have stood the test of time, and this 100-year-old lodge in Clam Lake, Wisconsin, is one of them.
Once the heart of town life, Pinehurst Lodge was a classic Northwoods bar and resort where laughter echoed, snowmobiles lined up outside, and fish stories grew taller with every telling. It’s not fancy, and it’s not flawless, but it’s real. And it’s filled with the kind of character that can’t be manufactured.
Over the years, as time marched on, the lodge grew quiet. The lights went out, the laughter faded, and the building sat empty—weathered, forgotten, and nearly lost. Until we, Rich and Makala, found it.
We didn’t just see what it had been. We saw what it could be again—and what it still meant to the people who remembered it. So we rolled up our sleeves and got to work, restoring it room by room, board by board. We didn’t erase the history, we honored it. The creaky floors stayed. So did the charm. So did the stories.
Today, Pinehurst Lodge lives again, not as a polished retreat, but as a place where families reconnect, friends laugh late into the night, and new memories are written into walls that have held them for generations.
The lodge offers five bedrooms and two and a half bathrooms, comfortably sleeping up to 10 guests. The large, fully stocked kitchen, featuring an industrial stove, is perfect for big breakfasts and group dinners. Inside, there’s a cozy wood-burning fireplace, a pool table, and a nostalgic Big Buck Hunter arcade game that guests of all ages love. Outside, you’ll find two charcoal grills and a firepit perfect for stories, s’mores, and stargazing.
While the lodge isn’t directly on the water, there’s lake access just about 100 yards down the trail, where you’ll find a private pier for your use. There’s also an onsite pontoon rental available for guests who want to explore Lower Clam Lake from the water.
With ample parking and easy trail access, this is a favorite spot for snowmobilers, boaters, fishermen, and families alike. It’s a place for those who value gathering over glamor, laughter over luxury, and connection over convenience. It’s for snowmobile crews who ride right from the driveway, fishing buddies swapping stories over a fresh catch, and families trading screen time for real time.
We brought this place back to life for people like you. For those who love old wood more than white walls. For those who know the best vacations aren’t always perfect, but they’re always meaningful.
This lodge holds over a century of memories, and we can’t wait for yours to be part of its next chapter.
Come stay. Come breathe. Come be part of the story.

This place was perfect for our group gathering. We played games at the large table, enjoyed time around the bar, and even assembled a few puzzles at the table in the corner. The Big Buck Hunter was a huge hit as was the pool table. We made s'mores every night at the fire pit! Plenty of parking and nice neighbors next door. The pier/access to the lake was amazing and a short walk. We brought a paddle board, kayak, pool floats, and a floating island and had so much fun on the water. There was a bald eagle at the lake, too. The littles tried their hand at fishing and had fun catching some little fish. They also got to enjoy catching tadpoles. We did experience a minor issue (no fault of theirs), they responded quickly, and came by to check it out for reassurance. Makala and Rich were super friendly and truly care about their guests and their comfort. We did not know that bath towels aren't typically provided in these lake properties, but when we talked to Makala we asked if they could help us and they provided the bath towels we needed. The property is advertised as a 3 bathroom place; however, be advised there are only two bathrooms with shower/bath capabilities. This place is conveniently located and an easy drive to Hayward or Cable (the girls said there is a great bookstore in Cable). There is a convenience store not far and a good restaurant/bar close by. Thanks for an amazing family vacation!

Our friends reported that the property was great. My husband and I were unable to go on the trip last minute but our 6 friends went and had a wonderful little getaway. Only complaint I heard was that mosquitos are horrible right now with the wet spring, but that doesn’t reflect on the property. They loved the house, loved the scenery. The pictures we saw were beautiful

The VRBO is out in the country but right on a 55 MPH hiway. Pluses were lots of room, access to dock and lake, quiet area (except for hi-way), friendly and prompt host and tons of room. Cons were no bath towels (we traveled from Washington State) no curtains on bathroom windows, bed had noisey plastic sheets, no blow dryer, no soaps or shampoos to get you through the first day (we arrived at 9:00 PM) kitchen stove smelled of gas and we left the exhaust fan on for the stay. This is a good venue for lots of people to stay there was a pool table and video games for guests to use. I wish the outside area would have been set up for small campfires and chairs to enjoy the evening time.
